Hello!! Been a very long time since I posted anything on my blog. Full time job to be blamed here 😛

Last year I got a message in my inbox from Komal the creative mind behind Red Velvet to work on a floral print for their next collection. I was way to eager to jump onto this opportunity as I love anything floral.

After much back and forth over emails due to the distance, her being in Mumbai and me in Sydney, we finished what we started. It was an amazing experience and I loved every bit of it.

The collection that we started working on is finally out for you to have a look at here.

Enjoy some of my process images below and see how the print was developed.

Rangoli is a folk art from India in which patterns are created on the floor of the courtyards using colored sand , rice or flower petals. It is made during the festival of Diwali or during occasions such as weddings. The designs are usually geometric but not always limited to it and you can be as creative as possible.

I like the geometry of the designs and so I decided to use it as inspiration for my next pattern. I used floral and paisley motifs to create a contrast with the geometric pattern. For the color palette I went with monochromatic using tints and shades of blue. Here’s what it looks like.
